I was up on the North Fork, above Rattlesnake Bar. Took me a minute to figure it out....but on this day, a Ned Rig using a Z-Man Finesse TRD was the answer. And dark blue, with a white/silver belly was the pattern. At this point, I'm staying away from all the submerged brush. As juicy as they look, the fish just haven't moved there yet and it's not producing. They were all concentrated on the rocky shore lines and submerged boulders just off-shore. It was super windy and super crowded (Translation: Too many wakeboarders about) which made it difficult to lock into position. But if I approached from upwind and let the wind push me into place, I had time for a couple of good casts into my target zones. I caught some nice ones today!

Full disclosure...I only had 4 hours in the morning cuz I wanted to get back in time for NFL playoffs, so my intent was to troll for some Rainbow or Kings...but after 3 hours of dragging lures and no results, I had to go bass fishing with the time I had left. I found a 100 foot long submerged ledge by the levy that was about 3 feet under water at the top and down to 8-10 feet on the drop off. Tied on the Strike King Casting Jig with a Ned Craw trailer. I set up about 25 feet away and cast to the ledge, popping my jig off the bottom back at me. This was the best of the day. 2 lb 4 oz. and my first bass for 2024. Here's to many, many more for us all!!!!
